'A new study finds the chemical war against cholesterol using statin drugs was justified through statistical deception and the cover up of over 300 adverse health effects documented in the biomedical literature.

Better safe than sorry, right? This is the logic that defines the grasp that the pharmaceutical company has on our psyche. Perhaps your mother, father, brother, and boyfriend have been recommended cholesterol-lowering medication, just to help hedge their bets around a possible chest-clutching demise.'

'Last Friday, I completed a five-day juice fast!I’ve done a bit of fasting and cleansing over the years, but my last juice fast was back in 1999!

I’ve always fasted on water a day or two when I felt the need for it and did a few longer fasts as well. (I did a five-day water fast in December 2013, a 23-day water fast in 2005 and a few 3-4 day fasts). But I had little experience with juice fasting.

I decided to give this a try because a new juicing company started in my city. They deliver freshly-pressed, organic juices to your door, and offer a 3 or 5 day cleanse service.

'This gloomy prediction was made at a GMO conference in December of 2014 by MIT senior scientist Stephanie Seneff, PhD. Originally a computer and artificial intelligence researcher, Seneff has shifted over the past several year to biology, with a focus on the impact of environmental toxins on our rapidly declining health.'

'So you’ve decided to incorporate cannabis edibles into your healing protocol – good for you. Now you need to know how to incorporate them safely, efficiently and effectively.

Edibles are an excellent option for patients who cannot, or do not want to smoke or vape their cannabis medicine, or who simply realize that the bulk of marijuana’s medical benefits are lost via smoking.

'Millions take toxic cholesterol and blood pressure lowering drugs that may do nothing to reduce heart disease specific mortality. Pomegranate juice, on the other hand, actually reverses underlying pathologies of the cardiovascular system that lead to bypass surgeries and heart attacks.

One of the most amazing clinical studies ever performed has been hidden away behind a pay wall for over a decade. When I first stumbled upon this clinical pearl two years ago, in the form of the publicly indexed abstract on pubmed.gov, my jaw nearly dropped.'

'At the edge of the Pacific, women believe they’re part of an unexplained breast cancer cluster. It’s a fear created by media hype and medical researchers who should know better. Since the '90s, the San Francisco Chronicle has published a steady stream of articles claiming the affluent, mostly white women of Marin have the highest rate of breast cancer in the country, as much as 35 percent higher than the national average. A new documentary plans to dispel the myths.'

'Whether you call it soybeans or edamame, the bottom line is the same: soy should not be consumed by anyone pursuing good health. By now it’s well known that almost all soy is genetically modified, but what is not so well known is that instead of contributing to nutrition, soybeans and most of the products made from them actually rob the body of nutrients, destroy thyroid function, and cause developmental problems in infants and children.'

'Today, I want to talk to you about a sensitive topic to many people… Understanding this, lets flow with the ideas and just be open to everything. I know for many of you reading this, you’re already skipping this part to get on with the real data.

For everyone else… understand that this is an exploration of some ideas (both new, and completely ancient), not a statement or action I’m asking you to do. You are free, please make your own choices.'

'Ginger, zingiber officinale, is thought to be perhaps the most used plant in the history of mankind. The Sanskrit name for ginger is “vishwa bhesaj,” which means universal medicine. Best known for treating indigestion and nausea, ginger can also act as a decongestant, and can help with poor circulation, arthritis and other cold weather imbalances.'

'Fluoride is found everywhere today, from antibiotics to drinking water, no stick pans to toothpaste, making exposure inevitable. All the more reason why new research proving this common spice can prevent fluoride damage is so promising!'

'Astragalus is an amazing root that helps to support immune system function and protect the liver and heart. This article will explore astragalus health benefits in both the Chinese and Western Herbalism perspectives. Astragalus root originally comes to us from China but it has quickly integrated itself into western herbalism. In a recent poll of practicing herbalists it placed as 16th in the top 50 herbs commonly used by western herbalists.'

'While all the health risks associated with modern air day travel are significant, especially when you add in the infectious disease risks associated with lackluster sanitation and jet fumes – which is one topic rarely discussed and so profoundly serious in its health implications that we can not do it justice here -- there is one deadly risk associated with air travel – particularly long haul flights[1] – which is perhaps most serious: venous thromboembolism (VTE).'

'A number of people believe that vegetables and fruits that have sprouted are bad for health as they release chemicals that are toxic for the body. While this might be true for certain fruits and vegetables it does not apply to garlic. That might not necessarily be true, especially in the case of sprouted garlic.'

'Although mushrooms get good press as a low-calorie, high fiber, low-cholesterol, low-sodium decoration for your pizza, there is much more to the mushroom story than that.Mushrooms have been valued for their culinary and medicinal properties for thousands of years and the Egyptians reserved them by law for the pharaoh. Hieroglyphics dating back 4,600 years depict their royal ancestry as well as their association with immortality.'

'There are many foods beneficial for our skin, but few match the nutrient capabilities of the following in terms of cleansing, moisturizing, regeneration, antioxidant, UV protection, strengthening and rejuvenation.'

'Peter Gøtzsche, the head of the Nordic Cochrane Center, and author of the book Deadly Medicines and Organised Crime: How Big Pharma Has Corrupted Healthcare claims he’s not the first to make such a comparison. He quotes a former Pfizer VP who once confessed:“It is scary how many similarities there are between this industry and the mob. The mob makes obscene amounts of money, as does this industry. The side effects of organized crime are killings and deaths, and the side effects are the same in this industry. The mob bribes politicians and others, and so does the drug industry …”'

'First thing for the sugar wary or weary is to consider a healthy sweetener substitute. Unsulphered blackstrap molasses is at the top of the list. It has a low glycemic index. And it can be used in warm water as a daily tonic to enhance our mineral deficient bodies that our minerally depleted topsoil crops have helped create.

You see, the cane sugar processed for molasses has roots that extend 15 feet below topsoil where there are still abundant minerals. More about how unsulphered blackstrap molasses is made later in the article.'

'In recent articles (see here and here), I’ve been pointing out that the current “measles outbreak” is a CDC fabrication.On and off, since 1987, I’ve been following the CDC and its astonishing trail of lies. Lying is its business.Here is yet another example—-Once upon a time, the CDC claimed that roughly 36,000 people in the US died every year from the flu. Media sources parroted this figure over and over.Lately, the CDC has chosen to change that estimate. It’s now between 3,000 and 49,000 flu deaths per year. That’s quite a loose range. Why does the CDC now waffle so egregiously?Perhaps because they’ve been exposed…'

'After oxygen, water, and basic food, magnesium may be the most important element needed by our bodies. It is vital for heart health, bone health, mental function and overall body maintenance – yet 80% or more of us are deficient in this vital mineral. Magnesium is more important than calcium, potassium or sodium, and it regulates all three of them. This vital mineral activates over 300 different biochemical reactions necessary for the body to function properly.'

'New research is revealing something remarkable about why the body sweats. Beyond its obvious role in regulating body temperature, sweating has been found to facilitate the elimination of accumulated heavy metals and petrochemicals, indicating that if we want to be healthy we should put regular effort into doing more sweating.'

'The modern day gluten-free mania and marketing is creating a backlash. People who are sick of it fall back on “inconclusive” studies or dismiss gluten concerns altogether. Unfortunately, gluten-free fare is often filled with junk ingredients, which creates more distrust.

Many trending diets have cut grains altogether; others say that’s throwing the baby out with the bathwater. While Paleo cuts out the whole food group, organizations like Weston A. Price recommend avoiding all refined products and using traditional methods of fermentation and soaking.'

'We are bombarded every day by harmful radiation and, shockingly, nearly half of our radiation exposure in the U.S. comes from medical tests like X-rays and CT scans. The balance comes from radiation in the earth, radon gas and radiation from space. And many worry about fallout from disasters like the meltdown at the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan. How do you protect yourself from radiation? Eat your flaxseeds.'

'An Ayurvedic cleanse would not be an Ayurvedic cleanse if it did not call for the ingestion of melted ghee. Aside from being surprised by this seemingly unlikely protocol, many frown upon the use of ghee in general because it is a dairy product.New research may prove this ancient Vedic cleansing technique to be more credible than we thought!As it turns out, the microbes in the gut actually produce their own ghee, making ghee a familiar and welcome substance in the body. Let me explain.'

'The general consensus among pro-vaxxers is that vaccines save lives, and if it weren't for their existence, infectious disease would be running rampant. But a closer look at the data reveals that the death rates from conditions like measles, scarlet fever, typhoid, whooping cough (pertussis) and diphtheria were all in major decline prior to the advent of their respective vaccines, the direct result of better nutrition and sanitation practices.'

'When most people think of detoxing everyday they think of drinking a smoothie that will cleanse their system. Ironically, smoothies aren’t the best way to detox.

Eating a diet that’s well-rounded and rich in organ meats, inspired by Weston A. Price or the Paleo food movement, will help us to be nourished and our detoxification organs to work well from a nutritional standpoint. But what else can we do to bolster the systems designed for detoxification, helping them to perform more efficiently?'

'In an attempt to curb the mass rush for food change and reform, psychiatry has green lighted a public relations push to spread awareness about their new buzzword “orthorexia nervosa,” defined as “a pathological obsession for biologically pure and healthy nutrition.”

In other words, experts are moving toward saying that our demand for nutrient-dense, healthful food is a mental disorder that must be treated.CNN, Fast Company, Popular Science, and other top outlets have all began to trumpet the talking points on cue relatively recently:'

'Plenty of research has shown that people who have small plots of land for gardening, especially those aged over 60, tend to be significantly healthier than those who do not. Growing your own garden gives you the ability to grow your own organic vegetables at a cost that is affordable for almost everyone.

Many of the best gardening hacks come from those on budgets as they teach us methods to save money by reusing supplies and harnessing our creativity with what we have. Here are ten simple hacks you will love if you have a garden.'

This story of one man’s constant conflicts with the medical establishment covered almost 50 years of the 20th Century, and have proven to be worthy of an epic movie script based on actual events that the AMA, FDA, and CDC probably won’t allow into production.

Most medical doctors and scientists with actual cancer cures tend to operate under the radar due to the vast oppressive cancer industry of modern allopathic medicine and its control of the media.

Harry Hoxsey was flamboyant. He put himself into the public eye and ear energetically and often, asserting the efficacy of his family’s herbal treatments garnered from early 19th Century Native Americans. The medical establishment, cancer industries, and cooperating government agencies responded viciously.

With the thousands of mainstream media articles blaming the non-vaccinated for disease outbreaks, this article will provide a necessary counterbalance by showing the vaccinated can (and do) infect the non-vaccinated...

At 115 and three months, Italy's Emma Morano is the oldest person in Europe and the fifth oldest in the world. She eats two or three raw eggs a day and has stayed single for most of her life. Today, she still lives alone. 'I didn't want to be dominated by anyone,' she said.

Take it from the oldest European: The keys to a long life are raw eggs and staying single.

'A low vitamin D intake in childhood is associated with a higher risk of a type of cardiovascular disease that can be diagnosed in in adulthood, researchers in Finland have found.

The researchers, led by Markus Juonala from the University of Turku, measured vitamin D levels of children and young people at baseline and then measured for carotid intima-thickness (IMT) -- an indicator of structural atherosclerosis -- as adults.

Some findings show that women who don't get enough vitamin E in their diets also appear to be more likely than others to show early signs of atherosclerosis, even before they experience any symptoms of the condition. They concluded that the highest risk of early atherosclerosis were those who took in the lowest amount of vitamin E in their diets.'

'Imagine you are sitting with your financial advisor.His role is to invest your assets, give you retirement and life insurance advice and even pay certain expenses out of your brokerage account. He sits before you because you assume it is a typical meeting where he goes over your financial plan and discusses options you may choose.Yet something unusual happens. He suddenly turns to you and says he is investing everything you have in two funds. Your instinct kicks in and your stomach flops.Wait!'

'What we eat and drink can protect our bodies against myriad health woes. Newer studies have shown that over 50% of heart disease cases are preventable with the right food choices. When one thinks of the link between diet and heart health, certain foods immediately come to mind. Although red wine, green tea and oatmeal may be the highly touted superstars of heart protection, there are actually many less recognized foods that can do the trick just as well, if not better.'

'Every last vestige of American culture and decency is being gutted, it seems, by the insatiable greed of the ruling class den of vipers, which is now voraciously targeting the hard-earned estates of elderly nursing home patients and their families. A recent report in The New York Times (NYT) explains how a law created to protect the aging from being financially exploited is now being used for just that, leaving behind a devastating wake of pecuniary ruin.'

'For more than 5,000 years humans have practiced the ancient Indian art of yoga. Long revered for its spiritual and mental benefits, yoga is fast becoming equally valued for its benefits in reversing the effects of modern chronic diseases.

'Have you noticed products containing flaxseed springing everywhere food is sold? Food producers are trying to get on the bandwagon because flaxseed and flax oil have been shown to be highly effective against ovarian cancer, and breast cancer too.Flaxseed is rich in phytoestrogen lignans, and in alpha linolenic fatty acids which the body converts into the Omega 3 fatty acids you’ve probably been hearing a lot about. These compounds have been shown to have potent anti-cancer effects. Flax oil is the active ingredient in Dr. Johanna Budwig’s cancer protocol, the most highly documented effective alternative treatment for breast cancer.'

'Although it has not quite yet reached celebrity status like coconut oil, avocado oil is rapidly gaining momentum in natural health circles – and gaining popularity amongst those who are not fond of the taste of coconut oil.Social media is abuzz with tales of the goodness of this pear-shaped, green fruit, as well. In fact, a quick search on Instagram reveals that the avocado hashtag has been used over two million times.Gone are the days when avocados were only thought of as the main ingredient in guacamole. People are finally paying attention to this “fat” fruit that has, in the past, gotten a bad rap.'
